Monthly horoscope Scorpio August 2018

August – Venus Sends Tenderness

The sun will still be in a square position at the start of the month, so its energy will be somewhat masked. Instead, you should expect to face certain challenges. This will change again after August 23rd as the sun moves into the sign Virgo to take a more advantageous sextile position from which it can affect Scorpios in a very good way. You’re sure to see positive results. You will be able to work well with others and will have plenty of support. This is the time to be active and tell others what you need.

Mercury in Poor Position

Mercury will remain in a less than favorable position throughout the entire month, so you will have to work a little harder to achieve good results at your job. However, it will be leaving retrograde on August 19th, a position it has held since July 26th. There’s nothing you can do to fight this shift, so you should expect a tendency for mistakes you’ve made in the past to come back to haunt you. Focus on correcting them instead. Things will get much better after September 6th.

Little Gifts of Love

Venus, on the other hand, will be in a very good position, resulting in a positive and harmonious period for love.

Liebevolle Gesten und Geschenke

You will feel cheerful and sociable, give your loved ones little gifts and get gifts as well, and Venus will be supporting any social gatherings. This is often a time when you will see positive resolutions for financial matters. When the goddess of love moves into the sign Libra on August 6th it won’t change much besides, perhaps, lessening the intensity somewhat. But if you do transition into a more gentle and more contemplative time that wouldn’t be bad either.

Stormier Days

Mars will start off the month by remaining in its square position through August 13th, which could continue to cause some turbulence in your life. Then it will move into Capricorn, from which it will finally be able to send Scorpios a more balanced flow of energy. Your work ethic will grow and you will have more interest in taking on new challenges. If you’re planning a new project, this is the time to start.

New Opportunities Open Up

Jupiter, the planet of luck, will still be in Scorpio through November 8th. This is an optimal position and you should definitely take advantage of it. A position with this kind of intensity only comes around once every 12 years. The week of the transit - while Jupiter is moving through Scorpio’s birthdays - will open up new opportunities for personal development. You’ll generally havegood relationships with your supervisors, which could help you get ahead at work. You might even get some public recognition or special reward like a prize, resulting in praise and protection. All kinds of educationand intellectual development are favored during this time, and this is also a good chance to focus on your character. Last but not least, you could also achieve some impressive success in your finances. Just be careful not to overdo it. Keep your feet on the ground so you don’t risk all those good results.

A Year of Saturn in Capricorn

Saturn will be in Capricorn throughout all of 2018 and forming a favorable sextile, which means you will be able to handle a much heavier workload than usual. This will help you work towards and achieve any goals you set for yourself. You’ll be able to handle work assigned to you during this time faithfully and satisfactorily. If you’re ready to work hard, this transit is sure to bring luck over the long-term. There’s no such thing as a free lunch, however, you’ll be working for everything you get. If you’ve always been diligent and reliable at work, you’ll finally get recognition from influential supervisors. If you’re a freelancer who’s been working hard, you’re sure to be satisfied with the results. We can’t wait to see how it works out ...
